Preface 

This manual covers the basic configuration and installation of the TrangoLINK-10 Wireless Broadband System, and 
applies to the following radio part numbers: 
 
P5830S-MU 

 

Master Unit with internal sectoral patch antenna 

P5830S-RU 

 

Remote Unit with internal patch antenna 

 
Also available is the TrangoLINK-10-EXT, which does not include an internal antenna.  The TrangoLINK-10-EXT 
consists of a P5830S-MU-EXT and a P5830S-RU-EXT, and must be used in conjunction with an FCC certified external 
antenna (sold separately).  Instead of an internal antenna, the P5830S-RU-EXT has two Reverse Polarity SMA RF 
Connectors for the attachment of external antenna cables.  Contact your sales person for more information regarding the 
“Professional Installation Guide.” 

FCC Information 

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations. Operation is subject to the following two 
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, 
including interference that may cause undesired operation. 
 
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the 
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential 
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in 
accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no 
guarantee that interference will not occur in any particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference 
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to 
correct the interference by one of more of the following measures: 
 

1)

 

Reorient the antenna. 

2)

 

Increase the separation between the affected equipment and the unit.  

3)

 

Connect the affected equipment to a power outlet on a different circuit from that which the receiver is connected to.  

4)

 

Consult the dealer and/or experienced radio/TV technician for help.

IMPORTANT NOTE: 

Intentional or unintentional changes or modifications must not be made unless under the express consent of the party 
responsible for compliance. Any such modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment and will 
void the manufacturer’s warranty. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, the following antenna installation and 
device operating configurations must be satisfied. The antenna for this unit must be fixed and mounted on outdoor 
permanent structures with a separation distance of at least two meters from all persons. Furthermore, it must not be co-
located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
